A Journey Beyond Earth: Space Explorers: The ISS Experience Lands in London
Are you ready to embark on an interstellar journey without ever leaving the ground? Eclipso, the leading VR company, is bringing the awe-inspiring Space Explorers: The ISS Experience to its venue in London on June 19, 2026. This groundbreaking experience offers a unique glimpse into life aboard the International Space Station (ISS) and is set to change the way we perceive space exploration.
What to Expect at Eclipso
The Space Explorers: The ISS Experience is not just another VR showcase; it’s part of a larger narrative that includes the popular Titanic: Echoes from the Past and Colosseum: The Legendary Arena. This immersive journey, created and produced by the acclaimed Felix & Paul Studios, is inspired by real-life space missions conducted in collaboration with NASA and other leading international space agencies.
Beginning June 19, this residency marks the European premiere of an incredible immersive experience rooted in authentic space exploration—a concept that has captivated over 500,000 visitors since its debut in Montreal in 2021.
The Technology Behind the Experience
Eclipso’s adaptation of Space Explorers: THE INFINITE transforms the ambitious storytelling project into a free-roaming immersive experience. Visitors will use cutting-edge VR technology to explore a detailed 3D model of the ISS, blended seamlessly with filmed footage captured using custom-engineered cameras designed for both inside and outside the station.
This groundbreaking technology allows guests to walk alongside real astronauts, gaining insights into their daily lives, spacewalks, and even enjoying breathtaking views of Earth from low orbit. It’s the closest sensation to being in outer space without actually leaving the planet.
A Unique Perspective on Space
During the experience, visitors will be transported nearly 250 miles above Earth, immersing them in the day-to-day realities of living in space. The journey is not passive; it encourages intimate encounters and interviews with real astronauts, evoking the "overview effect"—a deeply emotional experience that many astronauts report feeling when they see Earth from their unique vantage point in space.
As Antoine Lieutaud, Founder and CEO of Eclipso, states, "By placing visitors inside the International Space Station alongside real astronauts, we are offering a perspective that very few people have ever known. It is humbling, awe-inspiring, and deeply human.”
Engaging Audiences in New Ways
Eric Albert, CEO of Infinity Experiences, voiced the company’s mission to elevate the visitor experience: "Audiences no longer have to simply watch stories about space exploration. With The ISS Experience, they become participants. It’s about offering a deeply human experience—one that inspires curiosity, humility, and a renewed sense of our shared place in the universe."
A Growing Cultural Hub
Since its premiere, Space Explorers: THE INFINITE has traveled to numerous cities across the globe, including Houston, Seattle, and even Shanghai. London adds another layer to its international journey, reinforcing the city’s status as a cultural and creative hub.
Tickets for Space Explorers: The ISS Experience will be available starting from £34.00, making this extraordinary journey accessible to many eager explorers of all ages.
Conclusion
The Space Explorers: The ISS Experience is more than an exhibition; it’s an invitation to step beyond the boundaries of our Earthly existence and explore the final frontier in an unprecedented way. Mark your calendars for June 19, 2026, and prepare to experience a narrative about space that is thrilling, educational, and deeply moving.
